When I am forced to listen to Rush Limbaugh I can make some of the imbecility go away by pretending that he's just a really, really, really, really, really good satirist, the master of unintended irony; and that some day he will get on the air and say "My fellow Americans, I've just been screwing with you all for 2 decades as part of a large-scale reverse-psychology experiment." I get my news analysis from Jon Stewart.
